This is not a Moose on the loose, all covered in juice. But, could someone write a little ditty?

(this is a notice from my OPP at home)

BULL ON LOOSE

(NORTH MIDDLESEX, ON) A bull on the loose was seen in a bush lot on Argyle Street between Bear Creek Road and New Ontario Road on the evening of October 27, 2011.

The intact male cow is described as nearly 1000 pounds, black in colour, with some white at the rear hindquarters.

It went missing from an area farm in July 2011.

Middlesex Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) warns the public that this animal is likely to be aggressive and dangerous.

DO NOT APPROACH the animal.

Immediately contact police, the Ministry of Labour, and/or the local animal control office, should it be observed or located.

ViSalus for Road Trip

What an absolutely spectacular train ride from Edmonds, WA, USA to Vancouver, BC

Beautiful view, ocean, mountains, sky of all colors and clouds for contrast, waves, ships,

Herons, Eagles, comfy seat, picture windows and attentive staff on Amtrack.

Missing? A morning ViSalus shake. Duh, I didn't plan ahead.

Result? Lousy coffee + crumbly cookie = lack of satisfaction, lack of energy, hunger & heartburn!

My fault!

Next time will plan my 'ready bag' of ViSalus because we deserve it, my body and I!

FaceBook Follies on DocZone CBC TV

2011-10-26T20:55:00.000-07:00

Love it or hate it, Facebook is the world’s most successful social networking site. And whether you use it or not, it is fundamentally changing the way people connect and communicate. Facebook is easy to use and so far, more than three-quarters of a billion people all over the world have signed up. Our relationships, our thoughts, our pastimes, our memories, our lives and deaths - all are now routinely recorded on Facebook. It represents a paradigm shift in communications as significant as the printing press, or the telegraph, or the television. Inevitably, mishaps, embarrassment and trouble accompany such change.

Thursday October 27 at 9 pm on CBC-TV

Facebook Follies is a one-hour documentary that takes a look at the unexpected consequences of people sharing their personal information on social media. Viewers meet people who lost their jobs, their marriages, their dignity, or who even ended up in jail - all because of their own or someone else’s Facebook posting. To give a broader context to the events, these stories are intercut with reflections from experts in the areas of social change, internet security and contemporary media.

Shot on location in Canada, the US and the UK,Facebook Follies is an engaging journey through one of today’s most pervasive forces of social change. It is directed by multi-Gemini award winner Geoff D’Eon (This Hour Has 22 Minutes, Rick Mercer’s Talking To Americans), and produced by Edward Peill (Tell Tale Productions).
